It really sounds like Pheumonia or severe bronchitis best you can do soon as poss is to get an X ray that will pic pheumonia up in your lungs. Sounds like you also need to go on a good antibiotic course.

You definitely need medical attention as this sounds like a bad infection. Take your temperature and get to your GP.

I was always told that the minute the phlegm turns to green you know you have a chest infection requiring antibiotic so see a doctor immediately

Agree with others it's definitely infected! Apart from colour the meaty taste is also a sign! 🙁

Agree with others , it also sounds like bronchiectasis.....

Hope you get the proper diagnosis and get better soon !

I agree with others some infections can take weeks to clear you probably need to send a sputem sample to your gp they can check it and put you on right antibiotics, I always have more phlegm in a morning I find walking helps clear it , it helps move it off my lungs x
